Online Endodontic Education
Patient in for a sinus tract check recall today asking questions…… All treatment done by endodontists. Always done in a single visit. The 2nd endodontist told the patient she was “cured”. He never checked her again. When she called and said she may have a problem… they told her it wasn’t necessary. Her GP told […]

No apparent periodontal communication, treated internally. V-Tapers. Glass fibre post on the palatal canal
The subtitle is: "How endodontics has been misled for decades by 3 year followups." Sent for #13 by one of my best RDs that does partial coverage gold. I hogged out #18 in 2002 (her clown RD who I fired over a decade ago started it and bashed the access for me), gutted #19 later […]
